The theme of the week has been brave and all the different ways we can be brave.

The biggest kinds of brave are the ones that you face every day. The choices you make everyday in how you show up in the world.

Today would have been my mom’s 71st birthday. This is one of my favorite pictures of her and I keep a copy by my desk. It was taken 30 years ago and I’m the same age as her in this photo. That feels completely weird to say, that anything that feels so close to my heart could be three decades old.
